The men’s national cricket team yesterday fell by 24 runs to KwaZuzu-Natal (KZN), their only Group C defeat in the ongoing Africa Twenty20 Cup at the Diamond Oval in Kimberly, South Africa.
The loss left their chances of advancing to the semifinals hanging by a thread. Having won the toss, the Kenyan men fielded first with Emmanuel Bundi putting up a spectacular show as he took five wickets and conceded 13 runs. Bundi destabilised KZN’s game plan, dismissing Zibusiso Zondo 9 (13), Andile Mokgakane 11 (10), skipper Prenelan Subrayen 6 (12), Jason Oakes 2 (6), and Jason Wagner 1 (5).
